Start looking for 16 bit versions of applications that are running. Such as A/V
scanners, software firewalls, etc. Most running processes are running under a
system account, so it is time consuming to isolate the offending application.
Next try disabling processes running under "system" one at a time with the CPU
monitor running and observe which one(s) make a big difference. Sometimes a
re-install of that particular application will do the trick, but most will
require upgrading to a 32 bit version of the process.
In my case, I had to update the F-PROT scan engine to a 32 bit version and that
solved the runaway issue.
Good luck!

Subject: SOT: Latest Windows Updates
Hey All,
We applied the latest round or about 5 security updates to our Win2K
Advanced Server yesterday and then all hell broke loose.
It now takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the desktop, then another 15 or
so before SQL Server and a few other services get running....CF service
never started in that time so I went in and set it to a manual start (trying
to free up resources).
Basically, the "System" process (not System Idle Process) is taking up all
the CPU time...occasionally letting go for a few seconds.
Being that the system moves SO slow it's tough to check things to try and
diagnose...so I'm here asking for help ;-)
Any..and I do mean ANY advice would be great
TIA
Cheers
